<p>Sorry to post another redundant thread, but lately I've been looking at major options and business seems the most interesting/lucrative..</p>
<p>I see many people trying to become ibankers -- or at least asking questions about the profession. Seems to me like salary and bonuses are amazing but the hours end up horrible. Here's my question: What's a job that can come from a business major making a decent amount of money WITHOUT working long hours? Something around $150K-$200K but gives you time for breaks, holidays, family, vacations, etc, with hours maybe 45 to 70 MAX / week?</p>
<p>Just looking for a list of some professions and then I'll further look it up. Thanks</p>
<p>FYI when school starts I'm a junior in HS so I've got lots of time to decide on a major/job ;)</p>
<p>EDIT: I also don't want to travel much..heh, just looking for a dream job :D</p>
<p>So lets see:</p>
<p>150-200K/year
45-70 hours/week
Low travel.</p>
<p>High level manager.</p>
<p>I also want that to be attainable rather quickly and be in a position for (fairly large) promotions/bonuses within 7-10 years</p>
<p>trully any high level manager from district and above will amke that much a year within those hours</p>
<p>"..from district and above"</p>
<p>what's district?</p>
<p>A district manager.</p>
<p>Commercial real estate broker or mortgage banker. Takes a few years to make any money but those that stick do very well ($300K+) with moderate effort.</p>
<p>thats if your good at selling, and if you are, they are numerous industries you can go into including insurance, private banking etc.</p>
<p>retail management - starting 50-60k a year with gradual increases as you gain experience.</p>
<p>retail management is horrid, they work many times 70-75 hours a week, and moving a step up in the chain is harder then being in a corporate environment</p>
<p>meh, people have been telling me its more like 50-60.</p>
<p>Commercial RE brokers are not salesmen. They are more like consultants and negotiate on behalf of clients. Most do leasing while a few do investment sales. Not lots of cold-calling like insurance. You work under a busy broker as his assistant and slowly develop your expertise and clients. Then he retires early and you take over the entire client base and hire your own asst.</p>
<p>I want to start at higher than 60K..</p>
<p>then be prepared to work your ass off cuz nothing starts at +60k with only 40-60 hours of work.</p>
<p>50-60 hours for retail management is for a smaller store making less money, 70-75 is for a larger store with 60k plus</p>
